Hi, we are running Ultrix 4.1's sendmail on DEC 5000, but cannot have it to route mail to user@node.BITNET. Any idea? Simple solutions? I used DRrelay_host but it caused all mails go through the relay_host, that is not what I want. Thanks a lot in advance.

Any idea? Simple solutions? In ruleset 0, in the section commented "handle special cases", add the following line: R$*<@$+.BITNET>$* $#tcp$@cunyvm.cuny.edu$:$1<@$2.BITNET>$3 route bitnet Make sure you make the white space tabs, not spaces. You can use some other host in place of cunyvm.cuny.edu if you'd rather, as well as some other mailer in case you don't use the "tcp" mailer. I've included a copy of the relevant part of DEC's sendmail.cf below in case you have trouble finding it.
